Approximating the universal thermal climate index using sparse regression with orthogonal polynomials

Geoscientific Model Development
Abstract. The Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI) is a measure of thermal comfort that quantifies how humans experience environmental conditions. Due to its robustness and versatility as a bioclimatic indicator, it has been extensively employed across a wide range of studies in bioclimatology and is increasingly used as an operational measure of ...
